 * Hi, i’ve set up WordPress multisite, I use nginx, SSL from let’s encrypt/cerbot
   for my main domain. This is working correctly.
 * I’m adding a new site, change the URL in site info to
 * I’ve change the DNS like this : A record : directs to the IP address of my DigitalOcean
   droplet.
    CNAME for www is an alias for A record NS records pointing to Digitalocean
   servers.
 * Is this wright ?
 * I’ve got the new site working when I add only a CNAME for wwwl pointing to my
   main site URL and changing the URL in the site info for www. But, if I use this
   method, the url without the www doesn’t work. And how about getting the SSL certificate
   for that..
 * I’m lost ! Any help would be appreciate. Thanks.

 * Well, it seems to be working partially now with the DNS configure with an A Record
   and CNAME. But i’m having of course a security message on Chrome that I can dismiss
   and access the new site. So I tried to run Cerbot command to get a certificate
   for lesrecettesdepatouetjuju.ml and www but it failed.
 * http-01 challenge for
    http-01 challenge for www Using default address 80 for
   authentication. Using default address 80 for authentication. Waiting for verification…
   Cleaning up challenges Could not automatically find a matching server block for.
   Set the `server_name` directive to use the Nginx installer.
 * There’s only one server block for the main domain. What should I do with that..
   
   Should I add the new domain inside this server bock ?
 * Well, I tried it, adding the new domain and www. It kinda work. Cerbot was able
   to install the certificate, but now it’s the main URL that’s giving me a security
   problem lol.
